Welcome to this week's tips
Hi Everyone,
I've been outside as much as possible this week because of the sunshiney, spring weather. I've even been doing my quiet time outside in the morning (top picture.) My Iris' and Bleeding Heart showed up this week.

I am deciding on my next class. I'll be choosing by how many people are on the interest list. You can find my classes here. If one looks helpful to you, get on the interest list (click the class picture and go to the class information page to get on the interest list.) You can find the list of classes here.

(P.S. none of my photos are filtered or photoshopped. I don't have time to pretend perfection. The top photo is mine, the bottom two are my daughter's. You can tell the photographer in the family :) 
Weekly Simplicity Tips
  1. Keep a mesh bag near the laundry basket for socks so you don't lose any.
  2. Only keep this season's clothes in your bedroom closet. Store others under the bed or less used closets.
  3. Clean top to bottom so you don't have to re-clean when dirt falls.
  4. Use a timer for your hose for watering the garden.
  5. When creating a new habit, attach it to a current one. (I am creating a watering the plants habit, so I do it when I do my morning quiet time. Very relaxing, too.)
  6. If cleaning your whole desk is overwhelming, tackle a corner, pile or the left side.
  7. Practice trust this week when things don't go as planned.
